While these are already plenty of questions for you to ask, the number of questions that you can ask that special someone is infinite. If you have a question that pops into your head, you can even write it down and save it for later.

No question is too big or too small to ask, though you might want to remember to be tactful if you do not know this person that well yet. And if there are certain topics that are sensitive, then you might want to steer clear of those subjects. Still, there are so many possible questions out there for you to ask, and even more possible answers for you to discover.

If you and this person are meant to be, then some of these answers might make you fall in love with him/her. You might develop a stronger bond than before because you will know more about what makes him/her special. As a result, this person could even become special to you.

So get out there and get to know your special someone. You never know what the answers might be. Whether they are different from your own or are actually similar to how you might answer, you can have plenty of fun regardless.

When you ask these get to know you questions and receive an answer, don’t forget to listen attentively. Fewer things are unattractive than a person who is a terrible listener. Remember to always keep it fun and spontaneous. Then the conversation will never get boring.
